Determine whether the sequence converges, and if so find its limit.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\left\{( 1-\frac{ 2 }{ n } )^{n}\right\} \] n = 1, to infinity.

OpenStudy (kmeis002):

A sequence convergences if \[ \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} a_n = L \] Where L is finite. Recall the limit definition of e \[ e^a = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} (1 + \frac{a}{x})^x\] That should help you obtain the limit of your sequence to see if it converges to a finite number.

Would it be: \[e^{-2}\]

OpenStudy (kmeis002):

Correct

Ok great. Thanks so much. I wasnt familiar with that rule!
